The function of music is to release us from the tyranny of conscious thought.

Drum roll please:D(just saw this in my drafts, it was suppose to be published but never was.)

I guess I  haven't told blog world yet but..... I got my Personal Progress Award!

Aren't you proud? I sure am. It was a lot of hard work but i a so glad i did it!

For all those who are unaware of the the Personal Progress Program out there... A Personal Progress Award is an award given to young woman once they complete 6 mini projects ( taking up to an hour or a couple of months to finish) as well as complete atleast10 hour projects for EACH of the 8 sections or values. As well as attend sacrament meeting regularly, live with high standards keep a journal, attend seminary, read the Book of Mormon regularly, and have a testimony of our Savior Jesus Christ .

Now I have not received my medallion in the mail yet but is on the way. For the time being i am working on getting my honor bee which requires me to read the Book Of Mormon again, and serve others for a total of 40 hours.

I can only hope that I will continue to engage in such great virtues and become as President Erza Taft Benson has expressed.. "Give me a young woman who loves home and family, who reads and ponders the scriptures daily, who has a burning testimony of the Book of Mormon. Give me a young woman who faithfully attends her church meetings, who is a seminary graduate, who has earned her Young Womanhood Recognition Award and wears it with pride! Give me a young woman who is virtuous and who has maintained her personal purity, who will not settle for less than a temple marriage, and I will give you a young woman who will perform miracles for the Lord now and throughout eternity."

 I hope to conduct a recognition as soon as i receive it. And boy am I glad it's out of the way!!!
